Northfield 53 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Hopefully we will have a full squad for the game . We must take our chances last time at Ayr we missed a few chances then gave away a soft goal to lose the game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Must win for us with an excruciating run of 3 games against our closest rivals coming right after this. Not looking forward to seeing how we’ll cope without Kerr for this but I’m guessing we’ll just go with a straight swap for Geggan coming in. And then Moffat in for Moore probably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Moore's suspended? Would much rather he played ahead of Moffat tbh. Moffat has probably been Ayr's best performer against us since you've come back up whereas Moore has looked utterly hopeless any time he's featured. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Moore is suspended, i don't think he has had many yellow cards other than today's. But yeah, Moore is a headless chicken that we've got for another 18 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moore was great for a couple of games but the way we play doesn’t suit him. Still a handy 3rd choice striker for us imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he isn't a "headless chicken" but he is 2nd best to Moffat 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I think it was Bucky who mentioned it on the match thread but is Moffat carrying a knock? It just strikes me as quite strange that he has been on the bench in the last few games. I haven't really criticised Kerr for anything as yet it's still too early to judge him but if Moffat on the bench is a tactical decision I find that hard to defend. Unfortunately, I miss this one too as I dont get back until Sunday. The midfield gives me the fear with Kerr suspended. Also, it would be super nice nice if our centre halves whichever 2 we go with can avoid making any clangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AYRSHIRE_ANGUS Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Would be interesting to know how many fans would rather this game was played on Thursday along with the top flight games. Boxing Day crowds are normally bigger from what I can recall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't start this game ahead of Moore then something has definitely happened 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, if it’s a choice to drop Moffat (like when McCall did when he tried to fit Moore into our system with Shankland, which in my opinion started the collapse that destroyed that season) rather than an injury then it’s a shocking decision that would turn me against Kerr a bit. Moffat is quite blatantly one of our best players and should be starting every week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxing Day and New Year's Day games are much better. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 With Kerr not able to pick Kerr for this will that mean a change of formation again? If so then I don't really fancy our chances of scoring. A clean sheet is a lost cause regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moffat does not play as a lone striker and hasn’t for about 2 seasons , should play on Saturday repacking Kerr I would think , 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall and Kerr both commented on this saying that to get our best players on the park then playing 3 in midfield was a must. It was also easy to switch to a 4-2-3-1 with Kelly pushing on a bit. I wouldn’t start Moore at all right now. He’s better coming in against tiring defenders and he definitely isn’t suited to a lone striker role. Put Geggan in for Kerr and allow Forrest, Moff and McCowan the freedom to go and cause problems. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, why would we possibly go back to a 4-4-2 when we have looked far better when we reverted back to our 4-3-3 the past two games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
